| Introduction | Thank you for visiting my site! I've had the pleasure of working with children in the teaching profession for the past 10 years. All of these experiences made me a better teacher and person. As a Teacher and Literacy Tutor, this blog is dedicated to helping children become lifelong readers and have positive reading experiences. The most valuable lesson I've learned so far in my career is no two kids learn something exactly the same way, so HOW I teach is an ever-changing process.
